    I’d bet on it, in 2016 I got .9 on 72mths. I got the alltrack but if I can get a crazy deal on the r I might sell my alltrack to my mom. And get another r.

    Why'd you get rid of the R?

    I sold because i had a unexpected third kid that we found out about 2-3 months after we got it. now we can make it work better that we have a 7 seater as the wife's main ride.
    i sold my rs4 and regretted it, but i have since got another as well. i got the 6spd and wasn't happy with it, not a reason to sell but if you do get the dsg. i'm super happy with the alltrack and dsg, but i could use some more hp.

    Yeah, the COBB base tunes aren't bad. Even on the FiST they're pretty good. We got the tune for the R from Stratified Auto out in BC - they're a great group and really good to work with.
    Did you dyno your car pre/post Protune from Stratified? Was it worth it?

    Also, anyone running a JB1 ? (not 4)

    I had a tune done from stratified years ago with my Speed3 and Cobb Accessport and it was worth every penny. The power delivery was way better and more consistent versus the OTS map from Cobb.

    Thomas Tetzlaff, Public Relations Manager, for VW of Canada, was interviewed on Youtube a couple days ago.


    Around the 13:00 mark, they start discussing the upcoming R.

    MK8 Golf R, will come with a MANUAL Transmission, with a summer of 2021, anticipated release, along with the GTi. Sunroof will be returning also.

    Any hp/tq numbers? If they make the estate version I might have to sell the allroad.

    Power outputs, on Mk8 leaked.

    GTi 240hp
    GTi TCR 296hp
    R 328hp

    They won't relase the R Estate here, as it'll cannibalize the Allroad.

    The Golf SportWagon, & Alltrack won't be released at the same time as the Golf/GTi & R. Perhaps 22/23 models.

    Hopefully the manual R gets a better clutch than the MK7 one did. That thing couldn't handle stock hp/tq, let alone a small tune or other upgrades. I love manuals, and would tell people to stay away from the manual MK7 R's (also owned one).

    I wonder how they are going to squeeze another model in between a GTI Autobahn and the R. As is, a GTI Autobahn DSG and driver's assistance are very close in price. The R DSG with driver's assistance is $44,332 and the GTI Autobahn DSG is just over $40K.. Will the TCR be....$42K?

    I messed up my prices a bit (see edit) but still, pricing is extremely similar. It would make more sense if we don't get it, but that's too bad as something in between a GTI and R would be perfect for me.

    Thank goodness! We don't get the cabrio R over here, so I need something to look at the sky through.

    Had one on my R32T, and my 6R, but on the 7, haven't missed it. Probably won't get one on the 8, either.
